DMT's
I was 60 and taking
tecfidera
. Found another neuro (script writer). I am 62 and still on it. The DMT's have not been out for very long to do age studies. The neuro's don't like prescribing because they cost a lot and liability is high. I like
tecfidera
. Been on it for 10 years.

Kesimpta
Over in the UK we aren't blessed with too much, but at the moment it is very fine :-) Anyhow, I moved over from
Tecfidera
to Ksimpta around 4 months ago after a particularly nasty relapse last year, and wondered if anyone else has done the same?

Gilenya
My insurance denied Kesemptađź’”, one of their criteria for approving it is I have to have tried one of two other, less effective DMT's first, and Gilenya is the better of the two they listed according to what I've researched (the other is
Tecfidera
, which is a pill, I have absorption issues, so it wouldn't

Weird symptoms / Is this related to MS?
BACKGROUND: Dx in 2012 and on
Tecfidera
since 2013. No relapses since, thank God! But I have experienced some weird things -some recently and some for a long time now. [i]Read below - what do you think? anyone else experience these things? [/i] 1.

Tecfedira as first DMT?
Is
tecfidera
the only thing they try first in the US? I have had a few folks tell me Ocrevus.... But I honestly have no idea whether that would even be an option. Just curious what you all w

Vumerity
Anyone on Vumerity (
Tecfidera
generic)? I saw some older threads but nothing recent. Switching from Copaxone 40MG soon, which has been amazing for me, but skin needs a break. Any tips or things to be aware of when taking this? Really scared to make a switch.

Neuro reviewed 2nd MRI scans :)
Hopefully, my white cells will stay level and not drop so I can stay on
Tecfidera
and not switch. Good day! Thanks, everyone for your thoughts, prayers, good vibes, etc! They have worked their magic.

Been away for a bit...depression hit hard
Been on Avonex, Rebif, Copaxone,
Tecfidera
, Vumerity, and Kesimpta. Each drug had its pros and cons, some side effects were more bearable than others. The Kesimpta, which I hoped would work for me, made me very sick and I stopped after six months.

Ocrevus?
They concurred with the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis but they recommended ocrevus over
tecfidera
. I admit to being a little freaked out about the whole getting sick situation while on a B cell depleter. Can any of you share your experience?

Just ranting...
Generic
tecfidera
was called in to Walgreens. Two Rx's as you need to titrate up in dosage. First the app said it was out of stock. Then Walgreens cancelled the 240 mg RX and now it says problem with insurance. I called and the person on the other end of the phone was rude and not helpful.

Somebody asked
Somebody asked about
Tecfidera
, but I lost the message. Entirely my fault and I am sorry. So a quick summary. Been on it for 15 or so years, and never any side effects. Easy to use and convenient.

Had my 3 month blood work done for Dimethyl Fumurate (generic Tecfidera)
And Neuro says: Stable lymphocytes :)3 months ago, my numbers were on the low side so she said I have to get bloodwork done every 3 months instead of 6 months because my numbers were always going up and down. Today was bloodwork day and my numbers were good :) Don't have to take a break from my meds

Discounted RXs from Cost Plus Drugs!
Dimethyl Fumarate (Generic for
Tecfidera
) costs $15.08 vs over $2,000! I am going to talk to my Neuro in Dec about this as the insurance copay restarts in Jan and I know the first time I fill my rx in the beginning of the year is super high. https://costplusdrugs.com/

New to ms and Medication options.
Hello, I have just recently been diagnosed with MS. my doctor has tasked me with researching and choosing what medication i want to start with from a list. that list is
Tecfidera
, Vumerity, Aubagio and Ocrevus. I was hoping for insight from people who have taken these meds.

Tecfidera vs generic Tecfidera
I just found out that my insurance company is refusing to renew my Vumerity perscription and is forcing me to take the generic of
Tecfidera
. (also found out is it's a literal no name drug as it goes by 'generic
Tecfidera
' in every post!)

Anybody have any experience with

There is NO vacation.....
I plan on being buried with some
Tecfidera
, Just to remind me. There is NO vacation, Relapsing-Remitting ms (RRms) does NOT take time off, have a vacation and neither will I, and NEITHER SHOULD YOU. Vacations are for other people not for us.

Post 743 Ocrevus my reasoning 23 Jun 2021
I am ineligible for it because of my age (old) and the efficacy of my current medicine,
Tecfidera
. Let us also mention my dislike of needles, I did Interferon-beta 1b years ago and that is enough needles for this lifetime. “YOU” on the other hand may well want to consider it strongly.
